02 — WHO COACHING IS FOR
For when you know something needs to change, and you want a plan.
People usually come to coaching with me at a turning point. Maybe one of these sounds familiar.
You’re weighing a career move, a promotion or starting something of your own, and you keep going back and forth.
You’re tired of being the only one in the room at work, and you want to decide what to do about it.
You want to feel more confident in how you show up: at work, in relationships, in your own decisions.
Life has changed, through a move, a breakup, a new role or a new stage, and you’re working out what comes next.
You want dating and relationships that work for you, on your terms.
03 — THE FOUR COACHING AREAS
04 — HOW COACHING WITH ME WORKS
Coaching with me is structured, practical and paced to your life. Each session is 60 minutes by video.
In our first session we look at where you are, where you want to be, and what’s getting in the way.
We break the goal into steps you can actually take between sessions.
Each session we look at what worked, what didn’t, and adjust the plan.
We decide together how you’ll know it’s working, so coaching has a clear purpose and an end point.
A clearer direction
A practical next step
A way to check your progress
Book a single session to start, or choose a package if you already know you want ongoing support.
05 — COACHING OR THERAPY?
Is coaching right for you, or would therapy fit better?
Coaching and therapy do different jobs. Coaching helps you set direction and take practical steps toward a goal. It doesn’t diagnose or treat mental health conditions.
You’re generally coping day to day and want to move forward on a goal
Your focus is a decision, a change or a skill
You want structure, a plan and accountability
Low mood, anxiety or stress is making daily life hard
You want to work through past experiences or trauma
Grief, a loss or a relationship is weighing on you heavily
Coaching isn’t crisis support. If you’re in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 in the US (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or call 911. Outside the US, contact your local emergency number.
